About This Home

A once-in-70-years offering in park-adjacent City Park West: a 1953 mid-century modern ranch on a 10,500 sq ft corner lot, two blocks from City Park. Built for Elvin R. Caldwell, the Denver civic leader whose name graces the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library and the Elvin R. Caldwell Community Service Plaza; the iron "C" set in the chimney still carries the Caldwell name. Designed by Joe Lort Jr., a Denver designer strongly influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright; his original written instructions to the contractor, dated April 24, 1951, remain with the property, confirming the attribution. A fully permitted 2018 renovation set out to reveal the home rather than modernize it: all-new plumbing, electrical and mechanical, new roof, boiler, water heater and insulation, ducted mini-split cooling alongside original hot-water baseboard heat, and dimmable recessed LED lighting. Restored original cabinet knobs, preserved custom doors and the original entry light were kept. The palette stays disciplined, white and grey grounded by warm walnut, with one note of true color in the handmade Italian tile backsplash of the opened, light-filled kitchen. Solar tubes pour daylight into interior rooms; nearly every bathroom wears a different tile pattern; the primary ceiling is matte Hale Navy, painted to read like the night sky. About 2,000 sq ft per level. The lower level offers a full 900 sq ft basement apartment with second full kitchen, its own fireplace, egress windows and separate rear entry, a layout with flexibility for many living arrangements, plus a flexible suite with mini bar and an oversized laundry room. Rental use may be possible, subject to Denver licensing and zoning rules. Outside, a mature waterwise xeriscape with 80+ species blooming March through October, an official Monarch Waystation. Saturday farmers market and summer jazz at City Park, Denver Botanic Gardens 1.4 miles away, and the new bike route toward downtown passes the front door.
